Recently, my computer will randomly freeze every few days. The computer says it might be a problem with disk consistancy. Is this a virus or is it just Vista sucking? I ran Norton full scan, and it found no viruses. I'd prefer someone who knew something to respond, rather than n00bs who just like to say they don't like Vista, but don't actually know why they don't like it because they are just coping what smart people say. And before anyone spams me about being dumb enough to get vista, I got this $1200 computer/monitor free.
When I bought my lap top, the customer service dude at the Best Buy said that Vista and Norton do not get along.
Thus, your problem is likely that you're using Norton.
I assume you know this by now @_@

Sorry for bumping up this thread, but I thought it would be more customary to reuse this topic then recreating a topic with pretty much the same title. I am trying out Vista x64 and surprisingly it have all the drivers for my machine. I have been monitoring the disk space counts, and vista is eating up disk space (1GB per hour). That is friggen' lot of disk space. It does not matter weather or not if I disabled shadow copy and system restore, it still consumes 1GB per hour. I am leaning towards dumping the Vista and go back to XP. Is this disk consumption normal for Vista users? Also this is a fresh install of Vista, no internet connection or anything like that.
I would like to know how you disabled it, because my system restore points are eating the same amount of space at the same rate as it is for you, but I can simply manually clear all but the last restore point to get back lost space.
Perhaps you could do the same; maybe the disable feature doesn't actually disable due to a programming failure?
